Our team is seeking an experienced Backend and Python Engineer who is proficient with Supabase. The first milestone will be to enhance our scripts and processes for converting any long-form video into short-form clips (1 to 3 minutes long). We're extracting the most insightful portions of these long form videos, and looking to automate this process further so we can expand our content library to 100,000+ clips.


Tasks + Deliverables:

  • Improve, optimize our existing scripts for video processing & clipping.
  • Move our localized process to a server (like Render) so we can automate it in the cloud.
  • Improve + fix scripts that automate uploading of clips and videos to Supabase. Along with improving our scripts that automate the details + ai-generated context for each clip stored in Supabase.
  • Improving & further automating our scraping of external videos.
  • Ensure high-quality output of video clips. 
  • (Optional) Nice to have: experience working with algorithms. especially related to consumer/content algorithms.
  • (Optional) After the success of this project...
    • work with the team to improve our LLM-driven algorithm for video content.
